GETTING BETTER CONTROL OF CONSONANT HANDSHAPES

If you are still having trouble cueing many of the consonant handshapes you
should probably review the Beginning Lessons in Cued Speech, starting with
Lesson 5. Concentrate on those consonants which are still not both automatic
and correct. The practice words in this session will simply give you
further opportunities to reinforce what you are learning.

Some cuers find that having a key word or phrase to identify the consonants
related to a specific handshape helps initially -- but in the long haul the
handshapes must be automatic and instantaneous. Here are some memory
helps:

The practice words which follow for each handshape are very easy because
they include only the handshape in question -- wherever possible. If a word
requires a 5 handshape, cues are generally indicated -- but not always.
